Yesterday I noticed my bow cover grew legs and walked away sometime this summer so I need to get a new one. Does anyone know if you can order one aftermarket?? I Called the dealer and they quoted me about $200 for the cover and support and an hour of labor ($95 per hour) to install the snaps. Is his the best I'll get??

I have to deliver my boat to the buyer on thursday and was hoping to already have a replacement ordered by then. Thanks folks.

Install the snaps? Are you sure he didn't misunderstand thinking that you wanted to add a bow cover to your boat and that they would need to install the male sides to the hull? I would have thought that the canvas came with the snaps pre-installed. :?

I think the canvas is ordered by FW from Great Lakes Boat Top Company - 15 Quality Circle, Vonore, TN 37885. 423-884-6761.

http://www.greatlakesboattop.com/

My dealer had a replacement top and boot shipped out from there and it fit like a glove. AFAIK each piece of canvas has a code for re-order / replacement. If you need me to find the tag I can look, but I don't remember seeing one on the bow or cockpit canvas.
(edit) Oh sorry forgot you had the 220 my tags won't match anyway.

Thanks Blessed...I told the parts guy the same thing, but he says the canvas comes without the snaps installed so it can fit any boat perfectly. I guess since the male side of the snaps are installed with human hands theres enough of a variance between boats to send the canvas bare. :(

Paradise, that is exactly right. They come without snaps.
